I asked a question on Richard Lynch's web site, and he provided a prompt answer. Basically, I told him that I had a question of why Photoshop would use the scratch disk at all if plenty of RAM were still available. Here is his answer:

Holy Moly, that's what I call a reply. Richard, I don't think you're going to need to write a new book, just keep posting all that kind of info here.

After installing a second drive, I set aside a partitioned 5 GB for my scratch disk. My primary (original) drive has...09-23-2002, 08:56 AM

Not knowing much at all about computers, I have a question about hard drives. I'm considering buying a second hard drive, and I have 512 MB DDR Ram installed in my Dell computer. The Ram is listed as PC 2100. I've seen hard drives advertised as 5400 rpm and PC 133. There is another advertised as 7200...09-08-2002, 12:31 PM
